As someone who tore his ACL and had surgery in November, Carson’s progress is promising. He had surgery a month or so after I did. I’ve only been running for a month now and he looks just as far along as I am if not better. We’ll credit the fact that he is the lord and savior, has NFL training personnel/facilities, younger, and just better than me in every possible way. So, I’m encouraged. My only hesitation will be how he it affects him psychologically. It will be in the back of your mind for at least the first year I’d think. We’ll see.
